THE human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is common in populations whose members’ sexual activities expose them to the virus, country director for Family Health International 360 (FHI) Daniel Tesfaye says.“FHI360 has been one organisation which has understood that HIV prevalence in PNG is a concentrated epidemic. That means its prevalence is higher in such populations as key populations (KP), which are made up of sex workers, men with diverse sexuality and transgender individuals.”Tesfaye said FHI360 has been working for a long time with these sectors. “The services we provide are outreach services to reach KP and clinics. In the last eight years we have supported about seven clinics, these established seven clinics provide specific service for key affected population on STI, HIV counselling and testing and anti-retroviral treatment for people who are HIV positive,” he said.”Tesfaye said FHI360 was a respected player in contributing to developing indicators for HIV, developing tools for collecting data and supporting the Government in the development of global AIDS report annually.He said FHI360 was a member of the technical working group that decided on key issues, including working with the World Health Organisation to developing new guidelines as well as contributing to development of algorithms (systems) and tools. FHI360 is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and supported by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DEFAT) of the Australian Government. ​
